Prince Grey Kitty enjoys watching the world through the big front window. Narrator: Male Story Begins: 3:54 Comfy Kitty Excerpt: The warm summer sun hung low in the sky, casting long, dusky shadows across the living room floor. Prince Grey kitty loafed luxuriously on the soft living room rug. Prince Grey was a sleek and curious kitty with fur the same color as his name. A contented purr rumbled in his throat as he watched some dust motes dance in the golden evening light. Though the days were still long, Prince Grey had noticed a subtle change in the evening air. The vibrant sunsets seemed to be arriving a little bit earlier each day. It was a sign that sunny summer was slowly beginning to give way to cozy autumn.
